This is one of the main reasons why I lost all interest in 3D women.
I mean look at this:-





Why can't real women be like this? T.T
Why does anime show so many badass women?
Are they teasing us?

No its because we're only human and obviously don't have the tech or knowledge of what you've shown to us.

because not a lot of peoples like masculine girls(the way they act not look and those girl are usually lesbians )you can always watch wwe female wrestling
Since Koe no Katachi has a very high rating her on MAL, rated by nearly 100k users currently should we try to upvote the movie on the worlds largest database related to films? This movie only has around 4,5k votes at the moment. Let's all vote and make the rating higher?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5323662/

if we make it more popular it will raise more money so it will support the anime industry and make anime more popular between all the peoples since IMDb is not an anime site
so more quality anime will be made

You don't need technology to become badass
Saeko Busujima doesn't have any superpowers, but she is one of the most badass women I've ever seen

They are not at all masculine. They act like girls even tho they are badass.
WWE is fake and the girls are not fighters, but paid actors.
Also, they fight like animals by pulling other opponent's hairs and shit.
Not at all badass

Why aren't you (I guess) and many other people like this? How often do you get in a sword fight? lol
Most people here with an access to the internet live in an almost safe place in peace. Although I was so shocked one time, I almost broke that guy's nose for harassing me in a bar... sometimes such self-defense actions are a reflex tho.

But overall, you don't need to be badass and I'm defintely won't act like one of those teenagers, who try to be cool by beating people or act bossy and dislikeable at least. It's not badass, it's bratty, if you mean that.

And for fighting skills: There are trained female soldiers and police women. But they are trained for self-defense.

What if you are just looking for a normal and real person instead of an insanely unrealistic anime standard ... and for other, not so shallow, traits like "being badass"? Like intelligence, kindness, loyalty, understanding ... ?

i won't go into all of them but just a couple -

one of them is doing her masters degree while working 3 different jobs. she's also a fitness instructor and goes on 2-3 day vacations out of the country to a different country almost once every a month, and is practically always busy.

another one i've known since i was little, she graduated from harvard with a math degree and started working at goldman sachs, then moved to a different corporation to do trading in nyc. she does ballroom dancing and martial arts for self defense due to the fact that her job typically requires her to work late and the streets in nyc aren't always safe at night. she's very good at programming and art as well, and probably other things i aint aware of

I don't agree with the idea of women having to be a badass and I agree that it is shallow.

But I am not sure I agree with your idea that you can't expect something you aren't able to give yourself. First of all, you said "You can't expect something you can't give yourself" which is not the same as "You can expect something you can give yourself" from the logical point of view. But very often people do make such implications, so could you clarify whether you agree with the second statement?

For now, I will point out only what I think about the first statement.

"You can't expect something you can't give yourself." Obviously, you can expect anything, including what you can't give yourself. It is your own free will and your expectations are up to you. I agree it may not be fair. But people do have their preferences or even criteria. And at that point, I am not sure being fair matters as much as we want (or perhaps don't want).

Some guys that are not particularly good-looking want a pretty girlfriend. Some physically weak girls want a strong guy that can protect them. Is that fair? I don't know. Is it unrealistic? Probably not.

You can say that this guy or girl will somehow compensate for his looks or her physical weakness. And they probably will find a way to make the other one happy. The "not good looking" guy might be strong and the "not strong" girl might be pretty. Together, they could perhaps complement each other. (Obviously, this is just an example, I am not saying being either strong or pretty is a good replacement for being a good person.)

But, at the end of the day, I think it is inevitable that one person makes the other one more happy. One person will bring more happiness. Both might make each other happy but one of them is better at it, even if they are both doing their best. Isn't that also unfair? Yet both are happy.

If both benefit, even if not equally, they can still make each other happy. And even if the two of them knew it, maybe they still would not give up on each other.

In that case, maybe it is not so wrong expecting something you can't give yourself. Maybe you can expect it and hope you are able to make the other one happy in some different way, even if you can't completely match everything the other person has to offer.

In a way, isn't it a nice idea, that a relationship can last, even if both sides are not providing the same amount in absolute terms?

But please, feel free to disagree. This is just my opinion.

As for the other thing you say, you mention that looking for traits like intelligence, kindness, loyalty and understanding is not shallow. While I agree that looking for kindness, loyalty and understanding is not shallow, is that really true for intelligence?

Intelligence is in great part determined by genetics and your environment while growing up. In that sense, a lot of someone's intelligence is decided without their own choice. Can you really blame someone for not being intelligent? Is it not shallow to look for intelligence? You might say that this is a sad reality and that it won't change your mind. It won't change mine. Most people will still want to date someone intelligent. But at the very least, we might want to consider that we might be shallow. And that is fine. At least we can try to become better.

I fail to see how being attracted to someone who is badass is shallow? Shallow means you only care about how someone looks or how they act. Being bad ass is not just an act. It is a combination of all your traits that shows you don't take shit from people.

Are you saying I'm shallow because I like smart people? Does it become shallow if they're only smart because they learned with books (like martial arts), or maybe it's the other way around and it's shallow if they're naturally smart?

Why would you compare real life to anime? It's escapist fiction for a reason.

Because you aren't looking at the right places, I guess. Think where you would expect to find Saeko Busujima, and go looking there.

I know that, but did you know, psychopathy and therefore a lack of empathy is also partially inherent.
Do you say: "You can't help it. I won't judge you on the kindness and empathy you could give?"

You want to live with this person and therefore intelligence is important to many people, because you want to meet each other on eye level and aren't satisfied with such small talk all along.
Intelligence is a complex thing and much more than "Do you understabd math?" The EQ is also a big part of it. Technically, empathy is one of the most complex tasks a brain could achieve.

A good relationship could bear a certain span of differences with those issues, but not really big ones imo.

Well, yes. If someone was born some way, you can't blame him for the things that he can't change. That doesn't mean you have to be friendly with someone who causes you discomfort. I am just saying we should be honest and admit to ourselves that we are being shallow, when we do something like not give someone a chance because he or she was born less attractive or intelligent.

Obviously, intelligence is very important. I completely agree. It is only natural you want to be with an intelligent person. Everyone wants to be with an intelligent person and not feel imprisoned by having to talk only small talk. I am not judging you or anyone else, I am just saying that we are being shallow.

I agree that intelligence is much more complex than just ability to do mathematics but I don't agree that EQ is an intelligence. I agree it is very important and that it requires intelligence but I don't think it is actually part of intelligence.
